Supro Flanger

Good pedal but not suitable for active pickups

Pretty good pedal, sounds cool and vintage-like. Flexible enough to get different shapes of the tone, and pretty much any configuration works (turn the knobs randomly and it would still work on any position, though the sound can vary quite a lot). But the pedal has very little input headroom, any active pickups and just hot on output pickups would make it clip a lot. Keep in mind that the bypass is buffered (not true bypass). To me it seems there is some kind of gate built into the pedal that makes it be quiet when you don’t play anything instead of producing phasing noise and/or sweeping noise sounds. I find this a good feature, works good when you put it in front of the distortion pedals. I had issues with another analogue flanger pedal, because it had some sweeping noises that you can hear very well when a distortion pedal boosts it. With this pedal it goes just fine.
